“Speaker Kevin McCarthy's job on the line as shutdown looms”

Under the Peter principle, Kevin McCarthy should be an assistant produce manager at a grocery store in Riverside, California - but never, ever allowed to move up. He should ALWAYS be an assistant manager: making sure the lettuce is fresh, ordering grapes - but never making any major decisions without asking the actual produce manager first. I think he’d be pretty good at that job.

And how much do I love that the UAW president REPORTED presidential candidate Tim Scott (R-Russia) to the NLRB for stating that striking workers should be fired.

I LOVE THAT. BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT THESE BUREAUS ARE FOR.

LITERALLY USE IT OR LOSE IT.

Sam just asked me this ⤵️

This is a very reasonable solution: Give him a warning. Each time he doesn't stop, move up the trial date.

Advantages: The judge has discretion over setting a trial date, so this would be difficult to appeal. Plus she'd have good reason.

Trump has enough resources to hire the lawyers he needs.

About the earliest she could move the trial would be December / November, and of course, this wouldn't shut him up.

I’m glad to see this list growing.

You can't condemn Trump or George Santos and not condemn Menendez. He needs to leave and allow Governor Murphy to name a Senate replacement.

Menendez is entitled to defend himself to the fullest extent the law allows. But not while in the government.
